He said something at the end of this (his last) press conference which really struck me
He says he can only manage one way ("ALL IN"), which is to be involved in every single aspect.
In this day and age, especially in the Premier League, that style of management will run anyone into the ground with exhaustion.

Wow thanks for posting that mate. Hadn't brought myself to watch it till now.
Something stood out to me during that.
Could a reason he has had enough and is "empty' be, because of the Intrusiveness of SOME fans holding out the back of the training ground and hanging around his house, looking for autographs, photos and just generally surrounding him and getting in his personal space?
Wishes he had a best mate with all the attention so he didn't have all the attention on himself.
Is that only during this week because he is leaving us or has he been frustrated at that for some time and that's helped confirm and forward his decision to leave?
